Richard Hawley - Standing At The Sky's Edge Lyrics
Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife
His hungry little children, he took their lives
This was the end of a desperate man
With only love in his eyes, no evil hands.
He was standing at the sky's edge
He was sliding down the razor's edge
And watched his life slowly sinking,
Away, away.
Mary was a troubled girl, she stole to eat
She had to sell her body to put shoes on her feet
Stole a car and tried to get away
Now all she hears is the rain on the roof
At sky's edge jail.
She was standing at the sky's edge
She was sliding down the razor's edge
And watched her life slowly sinking.
Away, away.
They were standing at the sky's edge,
And out there who knows what they're thinking.
They were sliding down the razor's edge
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Away, away, away, away, away.
Jacob was misguided, he carried a blade,
So much fear in the city it carried him away.
Young men were fighting and loosing their lives
At night as the screech howls in the trees watch
Young men die.
They were standing at the sky's edge,
And out there who knows what they're thinking.
They were sliding down the razor's edge,
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
They were standing at the sky's edge,
And out there there's dangerous thinking,
They were standing at the mirror's edge,
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Away, away, away, away, away.
